SCHOOL STANDARDS
If you have a family, chances are education in the area will have a big influence on your move. So here you’ll find details and results for all
the local nurseries, primary and secondary schools.
It’s such an important decision. If you have school age children, you’ll naturally want to know as much as possible about the quality and accessibility of schools in the area.
That’s why we’ve brought together all the essential information, including performance data compared with national averages for schools nearby (for more details of a specific
school’s performance, simply visit ofsted.gov.uk and click on ‘inspection reports’).
Applying for a place
Once you’ve chosen your preferred primary or
secondary schools it’s important to look at the
admissions criteria, as they can differ from school
to school. If the one you’ve chosen is popular, it’ll
give you an idea of how likely you are to get a place
there.
Then when you do apply, make sure you do it well in
advance – as far ahead as the Autumn Term a year
before your child is due to start.
Getting the results
Secondary schools generally send out placement
letters on 1st March. The dates for primary schools
vary, so check with the local authority. Your contact
details for this particular property are:

for the number of applicants; if that’s the case at
your preferred school, you still have a legal right to

YOUR GREEN GUIDE
We can all benefit from being environmentally-friendly… not to mention saving you a small fortune over the course of a year. Here you’ll
find a variety of information about the local environment for this particular property, and its energy efficiency.
It’s up to all of us to make a difference. Whether it’s recycling with the help of
the local authority or using an alternative energy source, it’s easy for everyone
to do their bit (for information on anything from environmental health to
pollution and recycling, the local authority’s website should help).
It’s also important to know whether or not your potential new home is at risk of being flooded,
The Energy Saving Trust estimates you need an annual average wind speed of 6m/s or
more to make a turbine effective, with no major obstacles nearby (such as buildings, trees
or hills) to reduce the speed or cause turbulence.
The average wind speed for this area is 4.9 m/s
Energy Performance Certificate
Recycling at home
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is designed to help people understand a home’s
energy efficiency and its impact on the environment. It uses a rating system from A to G,
A being most energy efficient. A qualified energy assessor creates the EPC, which shows
the home’s current rating and some effiiciency recommendations.
Easy to do and resulting in less waste being sent to landfill, recycling is actively encouraged
by the local council. They’ll be able to provide you with recycling bins and boxes, a timetable
of kerbside collection dates and more. Here are the details for contacting them, and of the
nearest recycling centre.
Every property marketed for sale or rent is required to have an EPC, which is always
accompanied by a report listing various recommendations together with the potential
improvements to the building’s energy rating.
so we’ve included info on that too. And finally, you’ll see just how energy-efficient this
particular property is – together with a few suggestions as to how it can be improved.
Recycling naturally
Other useful ways of recycling include composting food waste and reducing water usage
by fitting a water but to downpipes. Many local authorities have special schemes (including
discounted products) to encourage both – just call them for details.
Water meters
Another way to save water is by having a water meter – which can cut bills by as much
as £200 a year. The general rule is if there are more bedrooms than people in a house, it’s
worth having one; alternatively, the local water company can provide a ‘calculator’ to help
work out how much might be saved in a particular property.
Alternative energy
With 40% of Europe’s wind energy flowing over Britain, it could be worth fitting a domestic
wind turbine. It’s one of the greenest sources of energy available, and through feed-in
tariffs you get paid for any energy you generate even if you use it. What you don’t use
can be exported to the local grid (you get paid for that too!) – and you can store energy in
batteries for when there is no wind.

carbon emissions of one home with another. To enable this comparison the figures have been calculated using standardised running conditions (heating periods, room temperature, etc.) that are the same for all homes, consequently they are unlikely to match an occupier's actual fuel bills and carbon emissions in practice. The figures do not include the impacts of the fuels used for cooking or running appliances, such as TV, fridge etc.; nor do they reflect the costs associated with service, maintenance or safety inspections. Always check the certificate date because fuel prices can change over time and energy saving recommendations will evolve. Remember to look for the Energy Saving Trust Recommended logo when buying energy­efficient products. It's a quick and easy way to identify the most energy­efficient products on the market. This EPC and recommendations report may be given to the Energy Saving Trust to provide you with information on improving your dwelling’s energy performance. FLOOD RISK MAP FOR THE PROPERTY
Flood risk
According to the Environment Agency, millions of people in
the UK live in areas at risk of flooding, so it’s worth knowing in
advance about the home you’re looking at.
Definitions
A Zone 2 floodplain has an annual probability of flooding of
between 1 in 1000 (0.1%) and 1% from rivers and 0.5% from
the sea. A Zone 3 floodplain’s annual probability is 1 in 100
(1%) or greater from rivers and 1 in 200 (0.5%) from the sea. If
available, the highest known flood level may be shown.
Other types of flooding can affect properties – for
details on getting a full flood report, contact
The Property Intelligence People.

SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN
Thinking you might make a few alterations? Or want to know what other people are planning to build nearby? Either way, you’ll find all you
need to know here.
Planning Application Process
If you’re looking at making changes to your new home such
as an extension or conversion, you may well need planning
permission. Submitting an application is easier than you think.
You can get all the advice you need from your local council, who
will consider applications in line with the local development plan.
Points for consideration are:
• Number, size, layout, siting and the external appearance of
buildings
• Proposed access
• Landscaping and how it will affect the local neighbourhood
• The availability of services, such as roads and water supply
Contact the planning department of your
local planning authority for advice

Note. An Exact match is one where the property has been located within one metre of it’s central position.
A proximity match is where and exact match could not be made. This may be for several reasons such as an incomplete postal address, a new build having yet been allocated a postal address by Royal Mail or a large project – eg: a road or major
property development covering a large land area that we cannot give exact location to.
The Planning Applications section of this report contains data under licence from Emap Glenigan. Emap Glenigan is the largest provider of planning data in the UK. The company has been collecting and processing data since 1973. Emap Glenigan
tracks applications from the initial planning and tender through to contracts awarded. This Planning Report contains the most up to date commercially available information on planning applications made in the vicinity of the subject property over the
last 10 years. Please note that the location of the project applications (exact) relates to a point within the development, and does not represent the nearest border. The location of the project applications (proximity) is estimated from the site address
details and should not be considered as an accurate representation of the project’s location.
Please note that due to differing methodologies adopted by Local Authorities, some planning applications identified as having been Wwithin this report which would have a bearing on a purchaser’s decision if they were to have been granted, you are
advised to seek further clarification from the Local Authority on the applications status.
While GroundSure makes every effort to ensure that data is sourced from reliable providers, it is unable to ensure that the information is accurate, complete or up to date. Therefore, if the existence or absence of an application for or grant of planning
permission will have material effect on any decision to purchase land, GroundSure advises that a specific enquiry should be made to the local authority.
